It's somewhat disturbing to realize that anytime I want to get into an argument, all I have to do is pick any open Catholic thread.

Is this an "open catholic" thread?

Looks to me like an "Open Protestant Bashing Thread" with the first statement out of the box being a slam on Mormons and Jehovah's witnesses, just for good measure.

Not that there is anything wrong with bashing Protestants. We love to contend earnestly for the faith. So bash away.

BTW, Do all "Open Catholic" threads start out this contentiously?

I meant a "non-caucus" thread, and maybe it's just my impression, but it seems that we average about five Catholic bashing threads a week lately.

No they usually start out quite civil and then by about post #20, the Catholic bashers show up and change the subject.

As a follow up, for the record I think the comment about Mormons and Jehovah's Witnesses was totally uncalled for.

Well if you want to see it as Protestant Bashing, then you have to concede that when Protestants come onto an open Catholic thread and dispute the Catholics, it's Catholic bashing.

You can't have one without the other.
